$0.99 BOYS IN THE FIELD by Van Cole

Will McVitch is one of the star players on his baseball team. It turns out that a new member of the team, Gabriel Marten, has a crush on him.

The fact that he’s straight and Gabe is gay barely occurs to him, at least for a little while.

As for Gabe’s part, he’s frustrated that this is even an issue. He was thrilled to be getting a spot on a professional US team. It was just the cherry on the cake that he’d be playing alongside long-time crush Will. But as it turns out, Will is even more appealing in person, whether he’s straight or not.

How Will and Gabe feel in themselves. If they can’t work that out, then everything else crumbles – and they’re out at the first base, never mind the last.
